00-2396-CR, 00-2397-CR State v. Rones

Listen to this article

Sherman B. Rones appeals from judgments entered after he pled guilty to three counts of first-degree sexual assault, while using a dangerous weapon, and seven counts of armed robbery, several while concealing identity. Rones also appeals from an order denying his postconviction motions. He claims that he should be allowed to withdraw his guilty pleas because: (1) he received ineffective assistance of trial counsel; (2) the prosecutor breached the terms of the plea agreement; and (3) his pleas were not entered knowingly, intelligently or voluntarily.

Because Rones failed to prove that he received ineffective assistance of trial counsel, because the record does not reflect a breach of the plea agreement, and because the guilty pleas were knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily entered, we affirm.

This opinion will not be published.
